Gun Control 2022 (IV) - Gun Rights, Control, & Government

[The Empire of Pretantia]

Yep. A harmless toy.
It also points to the fact that they are after cosmetic looks over function.

Which is really quite stupid. AR-15 is semi-auto, as is the M1 Garand. I guess they think a polymer stock makes a gun deadlier?

It's classic politics: pump out ham fisted legislation with no real purpose to make it seem like you're doing something.

hooboy, the streets are safer in NSW, Australia now that they've arrested this terrorist.
NSW Man charged with possessing “military-style” gel blasters toy, refused bail.

These “military style” “prohibited firearms” have been taken off our streets by the NSW Police, who in a statement said “During the search, police located and seized 10 military-style gel blasters, three pistol-type gel blasters, scopes and ammunition.”

Jackasses!

Man good thing those courageous cops stopped this mad mad, someone might have had an irritated eye! /s
Seriously this is the biggest joke of an arrest I've seen in a long while.

That accurately sums up politicians.

"Crikey! You got a loicense for that, mate?"

This being Florida, you're probably just going to end up arming the feral, herpes-ridden primates with AR-15s.

Then I guess it would be prudent to just gun them all down before it happens.

And It's hard to find a good monkey with a gun.

Seems related.
An actual monkey cleaning a Glock…

That monkey knows more about guns than basically every Democratic politician.

Kinda sad really...

John Kerry’s Ignorant Gun-Control Rhetoric Is More Dangerous Than Guns

“There’s not a veteran here who would take an AR-16 with a long clip to go out and shoot a deer or shoot anything,” he told voters.

A long clip? Is that like a ten foot paper clip?

Well it is coming from a REMF, and kerry isn't the brightest bulb to begin with.

Florida Carry: We Will Sue Any Cop Who Violates a Member’s Rights

“Despite the well-established right, our members have been repeatedly victimized and deprived of their rights by various law enforcement agencies and their respective officers and deputies. Too many individuals in law enforcement throughout the state have harassed, berated, belittled, arrested, and even killed law-abiding citizens going about their personal business, for simply exercising their constitutionally protected right to bear arms.”

Well good, while i get cops can sometimes get antsy around people with guns that's no excuse to wrongly accuse, arrest, or shoot someone who has a legal right to be carrying a gun.

I suppose the word they're looking for is "High-capacity" clip but they were just to stupid to know the correct term which really brings into the legitimacy of someones words on a subject they barely know about. It's like a stay at home mom trying to argue that climate change isn't real to a meteorologist.

That's an apt analogy.

Indeed, that's why I chose it.

It's odd that he doesn't know better. He was a combat veteran.

What was his position? It could explain a lot.

John Kerry enlisted in the U.S. Naval Reserve.[1] He began his active duty military service on August 19, 1966. After completing sixteen weeks of Officer Candidate School at the U.S. Naval Training Center in Newport, Rhode Island, he received his commission on December 16, 1966.

Navy officer, not that far of a stretch to say he never had any firearm training, but rather naval training.

[Firsthome]

Just gonna say, I think that what they're doing (in VA) is wrong; but I usually agree with what the liberals (vs the leftists) think about guns. Not really contributing just throwing in my two cents like a lazy bum.

Well good, while i get cops can sometimes get antsy around people with guns that's no excuse to wrongly accuse, arrest, or shoot someone who has a legal right to be carrying a gun.

In my experience it's been the 1st year shitheads that tend to go off half cocked, like judge dredd looking to make their big bust or something and end up looking like dipshit.
I have yet to hear a logical explanation from an officer, in how a holstered or slung firearm is a threat, and warrants harassing someone exercising their 2nd Amendment.

Well A holstered firearm can still be a threat, it doesn't take very long to aim and fire a gun from holster. That being said, you still don't just assume someone who has a gun and holster is gonna try and kill you especially as an officer.

Well TBF its natural training even in my job field for airport security assume everything is a threat until you figure its not. so that's how the police are trained assume the person is a threat until they are not a threat.

It is in the manner of how an officer comes across when inquiring. Most times it's with cussing and conflicting orders as if their mind cannot comprehend that someone is carrying and minding their own business.
Don't get me wrong, I have more positive experiences with law enforcement, it is however those few that goes off unwarranted that leaves a sour taste.

It was on a swift boat though. I'm pretty sure you have to have small arms training to be on one of those.

I think this is more a case of him dumbing down his vocabulary because he thinks his audience won't understand. Like when geologists say lava instead of magma.
